My name is Brad Robinson, Stage manager and security with Livenation venue GLC Live at 20 Monroe and I am reaching out during one of the most challenging times of my life. I have been diagnosed with Sarcoidosis and Lymphoma, (both progressive, and fatigue laden illnesses)also recently (been fighting it since the 1st week of Oct.) developed a painful, drug-induced (reaction to a med used to keep the diseases at bay and further attacking more of my body) discoid rash that covers my body from heel to head. These health issues have left my immune system severely compromised, causing me to miss work frequently due to recurring illness. As someone who works in the entertainment industry, the slow season has only added to my financial strain, making it even harder to keep up with everyday expenses and the growing pile of medical debt from countless specialist appointments and ongoing treatments.

Despite my best efforts, I am struggling to afford the chemotherapy infusions I need, as well as the basic necessities like my mortgage, utilities, and groceries. I am able to work a little, but I tire easily and have become quite weak due to the illnesses and significant weight loss. The stress of mounting bills and uncertainty about my health has been overwhelming, but I am determined to keep fighting and to seek the care I need to recover.

With heartfelt love and gratitude, I want to thank each and every person who donates to or shares my fundraiser. Your support, no matter the size, is already an improvement on my current situation and brings me hope during this difficult journey. Thank you for being part of my support system and for helping me take steps toward healing and stability.
